New Rims
Here's the link to the new shoes im gettin. Keep in mind I have a white '06 civic ex coupe. Tail lights are tinted 70% drk smoke. I'm calling tomorrow to get pricing and hopefully make the purchase after a little saving and working.
Also, could someone tell me the exact bolt pattern of my car? Also, 17" would look good right?

Re: New Rims (cashdealer07)
not my taste but not my money either.
The bolt pattern is 5x114.3 and 17's would look good. 17's are probably the most common with our cars.

My new personal favorite is the Konig Feather's 16x7....I also love the Falken Hanabi's 16x7....my Favorite wheel of all time would have to be the Impul Silhouttes!!!!

Re: (clemsonhatch)
Personally, I think those rims are hella ugly. Those types of rims usually dont go with the car. I have seen a few with that type of rim and I feel it just cant pull off the look. Look up spoonmans car and you will see what im talking about. Just my 2 cents but since you said you are open to other rims....
I just got some 18 inch Kyowa KR206's and I love them. I have only had them for like 4 days but I already get like 10 comments a day. Young people and old will give me compliments.
They come in black, gold, hyper black, black with red lip, and some others. I got the Hyper silver ones.

Re: (DiMpL3s)

dimpl3s what do u think looks good. I think those rims look good clemson but do u think they could come in black with white lip? I'm just trying to make the color flow well w/ my white civic and my tinted taillights.

Re: (DiMpL3s)
Look closer buddy....it's all about the details.
The R-1 doesn't have that giant "KONIG TUNE" patch that completely covers an entire spoke. The layout is much smoother than the Konig with less of that "webbed" look where the lug nut holes are on the Konig wheels. Plus the spokes on the R-1 wheel are noticeably thicker.
Most people that can't notice the little **** would say they look exactly the same....but IMO I think it looks WAY better than the Konig.

Re: (DiMpL3s)
I'm surprised people aren't spending decent money on wheels for a brand new car...I wouldn't spend less than 500 on a set of wheels alone, and I'm planning on spending 800-1000...what gives guys?
You have to look for size, style, construction, and weight! I'm function over form, but jeez! Some of these cast wheels weigh 20+ pounds!

500+ on wheels for your car is rich? $125 a wheel?
These things connect you to the road. The best thing you can spend money on is wheels and tires. Why put something heavy and easily damaged that will hamper performance on your car?
I'm not saying go out and buy 3 piece forged wheels, but there are plenty of relatively name brand inexpensive options that offer great performance...
Seriously why throw just anything on your hubs? You go cheap and you get cheap results, and wheels and tires is something not to go cheap on. The rewards are great.
